Live coverage of this event has now concluded
It was Movie Night on Strictly Come Dancing this weekend, with a a spectacular evening of blockbuster-worthy performances.
Last week saw Kaye Adams become the first contestant to leave the 20th season, after finding herself in the dance-off against Matt Goss.
The Loose Women star performed her Charleston to Dorothy Provine's Music! Music! Music! with Kai Widdrington once again, while Bros singer Matt revisited his Samba to Night Fever by the Bee Gees.
The judges then had to decide who they wanted to keep in the competition and who they wanted to send home, with them voting overwhelmingly in favour of Matt.
"It was the right result and I did make mistakes, and when it comes to that high-pressured situation that’s what happens," Kaye said upon her exit.
"So I am delighted for Matt and Nadiya, the only person I am just sorry for is this wonderful man [Kai], who has just been so brilliant."
This weekend, the remaining contestants in the Strictly Come Dancing 2022 line-up performed for the third time in a bid to impress the judging panel of Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke.
TheWeek 3 routines were revealed earlier in the week, with the contestants are pulling out all the stops to climb to the top of the Strictly Come Dancing leaderboard.
While Ellie Simmonds and her professional dance partner Nikita Kuzmin did a Quickstep to Peppy and George from The Artist, Ellie Taylor and Johannes Radebe did the Cha Cha Cha to The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss) from Mermaids. Similarly, James Bye and Amy Dowden performance a Cha Cha Cha to Hooked on a Feeling from Guardians of the Galaxy.
It was a Samba to Hakuna Matata from The Lion King for Richie Anderson and Giovanni Pernice, a Charleston to Flash, Bang, Wallop! from Half a Sixpence for Tyler West and Dianne Buswell, and the American Smooth to Cry to Me from Dirty Dancing for Will Mellor and Nancy Xu.

Molly Rainford was the one to beat this week, after she finished at top of the leaderboard in Week 2.
Molly and her professional dance partner Carlos Gu performed a Quickstep to Love on Top by Beyoncé, and the judges couldn't get enough of the dance, as they scored the CBBC star an impressive 34 points.
Will Mellor and Hamza Yassin were also strong contenders to lift the Glitterball trophy this year, after finishing in joint second place on the leaderboard in Week 2. It comes after they topped the leaderboard in Week 1 with 34 points.
With 14 contestants still in the running to be crowned this year's winner, there's still time for the celebs to turn things around. The judges scores from tonight will be combined with the public vote and the results will be revealed on Sunday night's results show.
The two contestants with the fewest votes will go head-to-head in a dance-off. The judges will then decide who they want to keep in the competition and who they want to send home.
Here's what happened on Movie Nigh from the the judges' scores, to the comments and more.

James Bye is up
Dancing the Cha Cha Cha to Hooked On A Feeling from Guardians of the Galaxy is actor James Bye and his professional dance partner Amy Dowden, and he's killing those solo hip thrusts!
But, what do the judges think?
Shirley is impressed with James' body, saying he managed to get his body into a "central line."
Anton has mixed reviews, saying James' timing needs to be fixed, however it thought it was a "good dance."
Craig thought it was "flat-footed" and wasn't a fan of the hip work, but he thinks James has rhythm, so we guess that's a good sign.

Matt Goss comes back fighting
Last week saw Matt Goss end up in the first dance off for season 20, as he went head-to-head with Kaye Adams. Thankfully, the judges decide to save him, giving him another chance.
Dancing the Viennese Waltz to Hold My Hand from Top Gun: Maverick with his professional dance partner, Nadiya Bychkova, Matt takes to the dance floor.
But, will tonight's performance be enough to keep him from the dance-off tomorrow night?

Cha Cha Cha
Doing a Cha Cha Cha to The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss) from Mermaids, Ellie Taylor and her professional dance partner take to the dance floor.
But, what did the judges think of Ellie's Cher-inspired performance?
Shirley praises Ellie for adding more skills to her "basket" but says she won't be accepting any "heel leads" going forward.
"The characterisation of the dance was brilliant" Anton adds, before agreeing with Shirley.
"It is true, without leading with the toe, darling, it will always end up looking stompy," Craig said, however, he admits "I love you and I love watching you!"
Slightly better from Motsi who tells Ellie to keep working, complimenting her "personality!"
Not all bad then.

Hamza's scores are in

And off they go!
Donning a ginger bob and fringed number, Kym gets into character as the pair put on a lively performance.
"I think you need to learn to energise each move," Craig says. "All that being said, darling, this is your best performance!"
Motsi is in agreement, telling Kym "there's no going back!"
"For me, by far your best performance," Shirley adds.
